Higher Change Lancashire Map

About Higher Change

Higher Change, a collection of dwellings breathing the Lancashire air, finds its place on the rugged contours of Rossendale. It lies 1.3 km north-east of Bacup (from Bacup: bearing 53°T, OS grid SD 878 237), and is situated south-west of Sharneyford village. The land hereabouts rises and falls with a certain determined character, echoing the resilient spirit of the people who have long made their homes on these slopes. The stone of its older buildings, weathered by countless winds, holds a muted warmth, a testament to lives lived in quiet industry. Even the fleeting sunlight seems to linger a moment longer on the moss-kissed walls of Higher Change before descending into the folds of the surrounding hills. The very air carries a faint, earthy scent, a whisper of the peat and heather that carpet the higher ground.
